I mean, honestly, I'm not sitting here looking to find out the details of exactly how and why they wrote Girls Girls Girls. I'd rather have the sordid details of their debauchery. The biggest takeaway came from the comparison pictures they run at the end. Even though they're willing to push boundaries by showing a girl squirt, they didn't have the balls to tease their actor's hair to true eighties heights.
It's campy and trashy, and occasionally good fun, but feels rather empty and superficial, giving us neither any real understanding of their rise to stardom nor any insight into their drug hell. It just all felt a bit sanitised. The young cast were likeable enough (Rheon probably the highlight), but it felt like they never really aged. It needed more Joe Chrest as the dad from Stranger Things - a squirting groupie is no substitute. Cheesy daftness.
Cheesy biopic charting the rise, fall and rebirth of Mötley Crüe that feels like a much less funny remake of This is Spinal Tap. The scenes of over the top partying get old very quickly, and the film plays fast and loose with much of the history (though they did an admirable job of visually recreating a lot of the band's most famous moments). The real highlight is Iwan Rheon's laconic and acerbic portrayal of Mick Mars. Not a great flick, but worth a look if you're a fan of the Crüe.
Glorious bad trash but too obnoxious to have a good time with. It’s sad because if one were to Legit remake this with just the members of Motley Crue as puppets with zero other changes it would be a perfect object.
Absolute trash, but fun trash. The film starts with a woman squirting high into the air. What else do you expect?
